To My Friend Who Doesn't See Her Worth

I can't wait for the day when you finally understand how great you are.

To My Friend Who Doesn't See Her Worth
Alaina Feinberg

My dearest friend,

I wish that you could see yourself through everyone else's eyes. The light that comes from within you is so pure and full of potential if only you could step back and see that. It makes me so sad to know that you don't believe in yourself. If only I could say that I believe in you enough for the both of us -- but that doesn't work. You have to grow to see your own beauty and your own value because unfortunately, I can't make you love yourself.

But I assure you, dear friend, that I will do all that I can to help you understand who you are and what you're worth. Because God created you to be exactly who you are, and as soon as you accept that you'll set the world on fire. You've got this passion for life inside you, and I love when you let it out. You're so genuine and so bold, but you have your guard up most of the time because of invalid insecurities. You spend so much time loving everyone around you that you forget to love yourself.

You've done so much for me and the other people in your life, and I can't wait to see what you do for yourself some day. I'll never stop reminding you how amazing you are because everyone in this world deserves to be told until they believe it themselves. When you finally understand how great you are and you tap into your full potential, the world better watch out. Because you're going to hit the ground running, and you're never going to stop. I can't wait for that day. Your kind heart will be full and that will radiate into the hearts of others.

You're so loved.

P.S. I hope you feel beautiful today.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
